By Danielle Vuono Departing from her typical alternative genre, Willow Smith experimented with rock for her fifth studio album, “<Coping Mechanism>.” This pop-punk album was released on October 7, 2022, and is made up of 11 songs, all co-written by the singer. This album, in short, is an expression of Willow’s experience with sapphic love. She […]
By Noah Aviles In my previous article, I wrote about attending Paul McCartney’s “Got Back” show at MetLife in June of 2022. Well, one month later, I was back in the same venue seeing a different show and seeing it with a different friend: This time around I was seeing the final tour of Elton […]
By Noah Aviles Before I went to this show, I had difficulty remembering when my last concert was. For obvious reasons (the global pandemic and all of that), I wasn’t attending too many live events at the time, but when I heard that Paul McCartney was heading to MetLife Stadium as the final stop of his “Got […]
Review by Mia Watson Greta Van Fleet is my favorite band. This was a largely anticipated weekend in their “Dreams in Gold” tour after being delayed since April due to illness within the band. Fans flocked from far and wide to the Mark G. Etess Arena for the final leg of their tour after gaining […]
Review by Aidan Smith Hundreds of excited fans rushed through the rain to New York City venue Terminal 5 on December 15th to see Vancouver, Canada-based band Peach Pit. The haphazard nature of the squeaks on the floor caused by soggy shoes made it clear that people were rushing around excitedly, preparing for Peach Pit […]
Review by Emily McCormack If you haven’t heard of Måneskin… where have you been?! Måneskin is a four piece Italian rock band who won Eurovision 2021 with their hit single “ZITTI E BUOINI.” I first heard pieces of the song on social media and finally listened to it on my own… while I must admit […]
A conversation between music director Jared Tauber and music librarian & web director Emily “Emol” McCormack who were both at Webster Hall on December 17, 2022 for The Happy Fit’s Under the Shade of Green Tour: JARED: What did you like about the concert, Emol? EMOL: I’m good, thanks for asking. And you? JARED: Oh […]
By Krizia Mae Templonuevo The Dream, Ivory brothers the night of Sept 23rd gave such an amazing show! Although their set was cut a little short, Louie and Christian gave it their best and everyone on the floor was vibing. The dreamy sounds of their guitar and deep bass echoed through the cozy venue of […]
The weekend of September 22-25, 2022 marked Firefly Music Festival’s 10th anniversary. With over a hundred artists of all different genres, across four days, and six stages- it’s impossible not to find something to love about Firefly. Tucked behind the Dover International Speedway in Dover, Delaware, you will find The Woodlands, home to the east coast’s […]
By Krizia Mae Templonuevo On Friday, September 16th, Big Wild, with Biig Piig supporting them, took the stage and gave one of the best performances I’ve seen to this day. The alt hip-hop artist Biig Piig started the night off with their song “Roses and Gold.” The perfect combination of chill and hype really pulled […]
Yeule was absolutely amazing the night of July 28th. Her performance was absolutely mesmerizing. The crowd showed so much support and love that she couldn’t help but shed a tear on stage. It was quite heartwarming. The song that started her set was “Pixel Affection”. Just the opening chord caused the crowd to cheer. I […]
On the rainy night of June 7th, Maia (mxmtoon) and Chloe Moriondo kick off the start of pride month with a bang. Their fun and lighthearted vibes really brought the crowd together. Where else but a mxmtoon show would a crowd yell out that they’re depressed. It’s pretty amazing seeing the lgbtq+ community be together and express such […]
I would like to start off by saying, “wow.” The audience at Webster Hall did not miss whatsoever. Before Palace even took their place on stage, the crowd welcomed the two openers with loud cheers and overwhelming applause. The first band that performed was Loose Buttons. I have never heard of them before that night, […]
Almost 30 years in the making, Papa Roach still has what it takes to rock and roll! By Víctor Muñiz Rosa Papa Roach performed last Tuesday at the Wellmont Theater in Montclair. The crowd was exhilarating, and everybody was jumping and singing all their hits like “American Dreams,” “Scars,” “Help,” Getting Away with Murder,” and […]
By Rosemary Gillin On 2/15/20, I attended William Clark Green East Coast Tour with Flatland Cavalry and Kenny Freeman kicking things off at The Gramercy Theatre in New York City. The genre of music they performed is Texas country, red dirt, Americana and a bit of country folk and Texas blues. The venue was packed at […]
By Sam Carliner On Thursday, January 23 I saw Snoop Dogg at The Wellmont. I didn’t realize how gorgeous of a venue The Wellmont is. There’s plenty of space, multiple bars with quick service, a great sound system, and a beautiful domed ceiling. These are just a few of the aspects that stood out. This […]
By Sam Carliner On Sunday, January 19 I saw Billy Woods at Mercury Lounge. This show was presented by Mercury East. It was my first Billy Woods show and my first time at Mercury Lounge. The venue was intimate but had plenty of space for what was a pretty popular show. I was also impressed […]
By Lauren Charles Starland Ballroom is a venue that I often forgot about. It’s sort of like the middle child stuck between the cool older sister venues in NYC and the fun younger brother venues in Philadelphia. It can put on a good show on its own just fine, but somehow you know it’s trying […]
By Lee Ben-Hakoon Angel Olsen’s second show of her All Mirrors tour leg took place in Asbury Lanes, an uber cool bowling alley/diner/concert venue in South Jersey. Warming up for Angel was Vagabon, a Cameroonian-American softly spoken artist with a powerful singing voice. Her beautiful blend of indie, alternative, and synth genres blended beautifully together, […]
